He’s a difference maker when he plays that way for our team , it totally changes the dynamic for our offense , our defense . I don’t think there’s anybody like him in the country when he plays that way. I thought our guards did a really good job defending the ball but Carrington (Carlton) also missed some shots . I thought it was the best we defended on the perimeter.

They (referees) told me it was taunting and it was clear,”“Like, there was no arguing it. There’s no defense. He pointed and said something. If that’s the case, he can’t do that. But I can’t say that he did because I haven’t seen that play yet. And you don’t need me to tell you that’s a big play in the game.”
“I haven’t liked the way we shared the ball the last two games,”
“We have 11 assists. We, as a team, I believe should have close to 20 assists a game. We should. It should come easier for us.”
